I know it's probably something simple with the hydraulics. I'd like to get it in the shop to work on but, the mower & crusher are in the way. The H is the only tractor with working hydraulics & is set up for the mower/crusher. I was wondering if I can bolt the mower on the tractor, remove the couplers from the hoses, jack up the mower & crusher & replace the hydraulic couplers to hold pressure in the line. Maybe top off the fluid in the hoses to keep the air out. Will this work well enough to move it to the barn? Am I missing a something? Is this just a bad idea? Can't say as I've encountered this perdickyment before. I've never moved boulders that come close to turning my tractor in to a teeter-totter, either. I figured I'd ask first, on this one. Best to do it right the first time. I'm not at a point where I can go for too long without my boulder mover. Just started putting up a fieldstone foundation under my shed & this couldn't have come at a worse time. Thanks much - Mike
